I’m thrilled you took my chair advice. And even if lots of people gave you that advice, I’ll pretend it was me that convinced you a good chair is VERY important. 🙂

We did the Chicco too and loved it. I’m guessing since you borrowed one if Utah you opted to travel without yours. If you’re ever willing to cart it around in the future, the gate agents are actually really willing to move any open seats next to where you’re already sitting so you can take the seat and have a nice snuggly place for him to sleep and free up your arms a little. But learn from my mistake, when I found out you could check car seats for free on a differnet trip, I jumped at the chance because it seemed like such a bargain and the frugal side of me couldn’t resist…they lost our luggage and we had no way to get home when we got to SLC. Not cool.
